Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like "OON" (as in "Uber") + "BEHR" (as in "bed") + "goh" (as in "go")/

Meaning

A huge, absurdly large amount of something. It's a vulgar Mexican expression that intensifies any quantity, packing more punch than 'a ton' or 'a ton of' something.

Examples

There was un vergo of people at the concert.

The dentist charged me un vergo, I blew my whole paycheck.

A public embarrassment big enough for everyone to witness and remember. Making a papelón means you messed up in front of an audience: forgot your speech, fell down the stairs at work, or said something completely wrong in a meeting. The shame has witnesses.
